Holy crap! I'm still in full liquids stage until tomorrow, but I am obsessed with pinning bariatric recipes on Pinterest. I CANT WAIT to make some of this stuff!!!!! Lord a'mighty, I am SOOOOO done with these liquids. *puke*

I know what you mean. I'm in pre-op liquids mostly and I stay on here or on Pinterest looking at the bariatric recipes! When you try something that is good, please send us a post. You can be our Guinnea Pig. LOL

Hey @@haleytrim I don't mind being the recipe trying guinea pig! I'll be sure to post each recipe I try and my personal review when was your surgery date? I was sleeved on 10/21. Very pleased to meet you

My surgery is scheduled for November 17th, two weeks from today. Man, that sounds scarry! LOL Nice to meet you too. I am going out on a limb and assume that is your daughter in the pic with you. She is a beautiful little girl and you "marked" her well because she looks just like you.

Well wishes for your upcoming surgery!!! It's a tough journey, with lots of up and downs, but so worth it. Just remember to roll with the punches babe...there's plenty of them! But you'll be fine!

Yes, that's my daughter thank you so much!! she's the baby of 4 and only girl. That photo was at Christmas 2 years ago...shes 15 now and a sophomore in highschool

yes, she resembles me quite a bit, fortunately she didn't get my side of the family genes where her figure is concerned. I wasnt heavy as a child/teenager/young adult either, but I was definitely "curvy" and I always knew I'd have trouble if I didn't watch. She takes after my husbands mother. She's very dainty and petite in every way. I love that she'll never have to worry about obesity.

Tomorrow is a week post-op for me & I've pin'd every recipe that sounds good on my private sleeve board!!! I just want something to eat. Anything!

That's exactly how I feel! Physically, I'm not hungry, but I don't feel well. I feel malnourished and I feel like my body is screaming "EAT SOMETHING, I'M SLOWLY DYING!" This full liquids phase has been really hard on me, after spending 2 weeks pre op on basically the same diet. I'm ready for some real food, even if it's baby food texture.

Yep! I also had the runs for 3 days & that certainly didn't help! I was in my post-op for 3+ weeks because insurance took so long. Good news is I'm down 10.5 in 6 days and 25.5 overall ????

I just past the liquid phase! Let me tell you that Beans have never tasted so good in my entire life lol. I added all kinds of spices. Then after two baby spoon size bites the thrill was over because I was full. It was the shortes in heaven experience ever. LOL good luck with the soft phase.

@@Jake B. LOL! Your reply made me giggle out loud..I can totally see food being anti-climactic now...forever. It's kinda sad cause MAN! I LOVE FOOD! I love cooking it and I love eating it, but I'm so excited to know I'm on my way to a LONGER healthier life. (I can't help that I'm still gonna miss food...)

This is so funny, I was thinking the same thing today! LOL I made DD a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch today and she only ate half. Boy, was I eyeing the uneaten half!!! I have my 1 week follow up tomorrow so I'm hoping to be able to start full liquids tomorrow or Wednesday. I am going to devour some Cream of Wheat!!! LOL

I have been doing the same thing last night and tonight and finding some really good ideas! It's no wonder at 6 days post-op I was starving today! LOL
